Fireball over Tridelphia, WV
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
We were traveling highway 70, west bound at approximately 20:30, when myself and my husband observed a large round shape with a tale, bluish white in color, speeding across the sky, traveling in the same direction as our vehicle. It suddenly disappeared within 5 seconds of spotting the object.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #123911). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
